If you have a slightly older computer, this will give your PC or laptop a second life. Also a must have on a new computer. Just so much faster than a HDD.

Perfect to get your Macbook faster again!

• nice and light

Used to upgrade a 2009 Macbook Pro. The old 160GB 5400 rpm was end-of-life and immediately after moving the HD through this SSD, the Macbook was perfectly workable again. An upgrade that is easy to perform that will give your old Macbook a lot of fun again!

When purchasing, also pay attention to the size of your current hard drive (if you want to transfer everything).
When purchasing, check carefully whether you still need a bracket (built-in module) to install it properly. For this you can purchase a package including bracket and cable.
